Hello!Pending further examination and palpating the area, I am inclined to suggest that you consider shaving down the front edge of the chin bone.

Without an exam your question cannot be answered. You will need to see an Oral/Maxillofacial surgeon to see if othognathic surgery, genioplasty or using an implant is best for your specific case.

So, a facial plastic surgeon with specific training in jaw surgery can fix this readily. It can be done under any type of anesthesia, although you may be most comfortable asleep. It's not a long procedure but there can be substantial swelling that lasts two weeks or more.
